Two patients with 8p terminal deletion associated with interstitial inverted duplication (inv dup del(8p)) had different mechanisms leading to the formation of a dicentric intermediate during meiosis. Three probands carried an identical B5.0 Mb interstitial duplication of chromosome 8p23.1. Four possible hotspots within 8p were observed at nucleotide coordinates of B10.45, 24.32–24.82, 32.19–32.77, and 38.94–39.72 Mb involving the formation of recurrent genomic rearrangements. Other CNVs with deletion- or duplication- specific start or stop coordinates on the 8p provide useful information for exploring the basic mechanisms of complex structural rearrangements in the human genome.

Midha _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Yingcai Xiao Dr. George R. Newkome _______________________________ Date ii ABSTRACT A tremendous increase in genomic data has encouraged biologists to turn to bioinformatics in order to assist in its interpretation and processing. One of the present challenges that need to be overcome in order to understand this data more completely is the development of a reliable method to accurately predict the function of a protein from its genomic information. This study focuses on developing an effective algorithm for protein function prediction. The algorithm is based on proteins that have similar expression patterns. The similarity of the expression data is determined using a novel measure, the slope matrix. The slope matrix introduces a normalized method for the comparison of expression levels throughout a proteome. The algorithm is tested using real microarray gene expression data. Their functions are characterized using gene ontology annotations. The results of the case study indicate the protein function prediction algorithm developed is comparable to the prediction algorithms that are based on the annotations of homologous proteins.

  • The Role of Methionine Sulfoxide Reductases in Oxidative Stress Tolerance and Virulence of Staphylococcus Aureus and Other Bacteria

Later studies identified the presence of two additional MSRA proteins (MSRA2 and MSRA3) in S. aureus. These MSR proteins have been characterized in many other bacteria as well. This review provides the current knowledge about the conditions and regulatory network that mimic the expression of these MSR encoding genes and their role in defense from oxidative stress and virulence. Keywords: MSRA; MSRB; oxidative stress; virulence 1. Methionine Sulfoxide Reductases The presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is potentially damaging to all cellular macromolecules. Oxidizing agents, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxides, and hydroxyl radicals, oxidize the sulfur atom of methionine residues, resulting in methionine sulfoxide (MetO) that typically leads to loss of protein function [1,2]. In 1981, an enzyme capable of reducing protein-bound methionine sulfoxide was identified [3,4]. These oxidized MetO residues are reduced back to methionine by methionine sulfoxide reductase (MSR) enzymes that restore normal protein functions [5,6].

However, the identity of all methionine sulfoxide reductases involved, their cellular locations and relative contributions to the overall pathway are poorly understood.

  • Quantitative Proteomics Identifies Redox Switches for Global Translation
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-017-02694-8 OPEN Quantitative proteomics identifies redox switches for global translation modulation by mitochondrially produced reactive oxygen species Ulrike Topf1,2, Ida Suppanz3,4, Lukasz Samluk1,2, Lidia Wrobel1, Alexander Böser3, Paulina Sakowska1, Bettina Knapp3, Martyna K. Pietrzyk1,2, Agnieszka Chacinska1,2 & Bettina Warscheid3,4,5 1234567890():,; The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is inevitably linked to life. However, the precise role of ROS in signalling and specific targets is largely unknown. We perform a global proteomic analysis to delineate the yeast redoxome to a depth of more than 4,300 unique cysteine residues in over 2,200 proteins. Mapping of redox-active thiols in proteins exposed to exogenous or endogenous mitochondria-derived oxidative stress reveals ROS-sensitive sites in several components of the translation apparatus. Mitochondria are the major source of cellular ROS. We demonstrate that increased levels of intracellular ROS caused by dysfunctional mitochondria serve as a signal to attenuate global protein synthesis. Hence, we propose a universal mechanism that controls protein synthesis by inducing reversible changes in the translation machinery upon modulating the redox status of proteins involved in translation. This crosstalk between mitochondria and protein synthesis may have an important contribution to pathologies caused by dysfunctional mitochondria. 1 International Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology, 4 Ks.

Description Source : Escherichia Coli. MSRA Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 237 amino acids (24-235) and having a molecular mass of 26.2kDa.The MSRA is fused to a 24 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MSRA) is a member of the MsrA Met sulfoxide reductase family. The MSRA enzyme has a vital function as a repair enzyme for proteins which have been inactivated by oxidation. MSRA catalyzes the reversible oxidation-reduction of methionine sulfoxide in proteins to methionine. The three substrates of the MSRA enzyme are peptide-L-methionine, thioredoxin disulfide, and H2O, while its 2 products are peptide-L-methionine (R)-S-oxide and thioredoxin. The MSRA protein is ubiquitous and extremely conserved. Human and animal studies have shown the ultimate levels of expression in kidney and nervous tissue.

Methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) repairs ·O2 is produced by complex I and complex III of the electron oxidatively damaged proteins through acting as an antioxidant. transport chain (ETC) and released into the mitochondrial Oxidative stress has been postulated to cause the mitochon- matrix (9). The mitochondrial dysfunction caused by oxidative drial dysfunction that is associated with aging and certain stress and can result in cell loss leading to neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease (PD). The present diseases and ischemic brain injury (10). Thus, pro-oxidant study investigated the protective effects of astragaloside IV antioxidant generation needs to be highly regulated (11). (AS-IV) on 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+)-induced Methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) A and B, which reduce mitochondrial dysfunction through MsrA in PC12 cells. This free and protein-based methionine sulfoxides to methionine, revealed that oxidative stress reduced the expression of MsrA are encoded by a single MsrA and three MsrB genes, respec- following MPP+ treatment. AS-IV was demonstrated to protect tively, in the mammalian genome (7,12). Mammalian MsrA PC12 cells from MPP+-induced oxidative damage through is expressed in the mitochondria, cytosol and nucleus (13,14).

Gladyshev† Department of Biochemistry, University of Nebraska, Lincoln, NE 68588-0664 Edited by Vincent Massey, University of Michigan Medial School, Ann Arbor, MI, and approved January 22, 2002 (received for review November 9, 2001) Selenoprotein R (SelR) is a mammalian selenocysteine-containing most of the cellular methionine sulfoxide reductase activity, the role protein with no known function. Here we report that cysteine of this protein as the sole peptide methionine sulfoxide reductant homologs of SelR are present in all organisms except certain parasites contrasts with experimental data.
